Early opinion: looks like shit. I didn't know if that was Kyo Kusanagi, Ian Somerhalder from the fucking Vampire Diaries, or some random K-pop pretty boy with flames. I dunno. At least Iori still has his typical badass essence, but this is going to take some adjusting.

I'm just going to assume this is very early footage, so it'll look much better the more we see it. I can't imagine KOF without it's crisp sprites, but they made it clear that 3D was the focus for KOF 14. As long as it isn't comparable to the Maximum Impact series, it should be good. At least we know KOF 14 is going to be a reality. So far it's only announced on PS4, so I'm wondering if it'll get an Arcade version or an XB1 port.

Not sure if it will be something like KOF XI where he has both his Rekka and his Fireball in one contained moveset, if there will be alternate versions of him on the CSS like in XIII or a Kyo clone a la KOF 2002 UM.

And honestly, I would mind either of these options to be honest. But having Kusanagi back using the fireball Kyo moveset would be pretty cool

If you were expecting sprites, you're dumb. I don't care how the game looks, if 3D models means no more missing moves then sign me the fuck up, because no matter how much I enjoy XIII, there are basically no XIII character iterations that are even close to as enjoyable as they were in older games. Kim and Terry were god damn butchered for fuck's sake.

Also, as long as it's 2D gameplay I'm fine. I don't want MI3.

You lack devotion! Enduring hunger and poverty is how you find the way!

I don't mind either sprites or 3d, however these 3d models are abysmally bad. People keep saying it is still in Alpha, well...they need to make a giganic overhaul visually.
"It's about gameplay, not graphics", true, unless they look like PS2 graphics on a PS4 system with uninspired bland generic anime models. It lost all it's personality.

Hope the game ends up amazing, but other than the most hardcore of KOF and FG fans...i don't see anyone else being interested in this title, unles they change it.
Premature, not really, why else would they already show of a trailer.

Man, I come back to SRK for the first time in like 2 months, and this?

I'm still half-convinced that trailer is like some kind of nightmare. Nothing in this day and age could possibly look that bad.

Looks bad right now but Im hoping that they can improve on it. Lets not forget that when SF4 was announced they improved the visuals same with SFV too. And SNK is a smaller company so Imma keep my fingers crossed

The teaser doesn't look good at all... But it's really early footage. I actually liked Maximum Impact 2 and I'm okay with them not using sprites as long as the gameplay stays 2d.
Now they just have to bring back Rock and B.Jenet, and since Sony announced the game they should work on CVS3 too.

Dude, they need Garou up in that joint. I'm praying my KOF XI team has a shot of being in lol.

We will probably have to give up on the graphics and expect that the gameplay is good. That said, if SNKP sticks to its guns and doesn't butcher the mechanics to appease to the noobs, then KOF XIV it's already the best fighter by default.

Anyway, it is good to see KOF back when it was practically deceased. If anything, it can be used to oblige Capcom to release something decent with SF5 when it appeared to be the only big fighter coming soon.

Mai in 3D is gonna be awesome. So happy this game is coming. I feel like we're hitting another boom period for Fighting Games - Tekken 7, Blazblue: Central Fiction, Guilty Gear Xrd: Revelator, MKX, KI, SF5 and now KOF XIV. Keep 'em coming.

Them not catering to anything other than hardcore audience was the exact reason SNK is where it's at right now

Meanwhile, Street Fighter, mortal kombat and tekken are at their prime of popularity and it's only gonna grow from now. Especially SF and MK
